What to do with all those Cub Condos®

Every time you visit Build-A-Bear Workshop® and buy a cuddly friend, your new furry friend goes home with a Cub Condo®. The question is what to do with the condo after you get home. Well, after having so many Cub Condos, my family came up with a few ways to reuse them.

1. First, there is the simple idea of using your Cub Condo as a home for your new Build-A-Bear Workshop furry friend.

2. Using it as a garage for your die-cast cars.

3. As a house for Barbie/Monster High dolls.

4. As a table for food.

5. Storage to hold all of your Build-A-Bear Workshop clothes and accessories.

There are so many other things you can use your Cub Condo for, kids can color the outside or just use it as a carrying case.

I use the Condo to hang the Special Satin Dresses that have full skirts. The handle is what I hook the hanger on and simply close as you normally would and there you have a mini closet for those Special Dresses. It holds 1 Turquoise Fancy Dress,1 Pink Floral, 1 Purple Rosette Dress, 1 Victoria Justice Jade Bling Dress with Purse. The trick is to gently angle the hangers when closing. The most important thing to me was to keep the Satin Full Dresses from being crushed. I am working on a closet for the dresses that is more durable and easier for the children to handle.
